Latin profanity (Wikipedia)

Latin profanity is coming along nicely, although I doubt it will be possible to cover all the euphemisms and metaphors in all of Latin literature. I've tried to make the outline at least give the words for the yet unwritten sections.

I promised this three weeks ago, and it's taken me that long to get up to speed. I will ultimately be sending this to peer review.

I just bought Adams's _The Latin Sexual Vocabulary_ recently, and I've only just meandered through it. I think the next time I teach Catullus, I might have to send students to your entry.
